Jenny Frison is an American comic book cover artist. Her interest in comics began with a Wonder Woman storybook she enjoyed as a young girl.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". She majored in illustration at Northern Illinois University before attending The Kubert School of Art.[1][2] During school, she decided she wanted to focus on cover art and quit before her third year to teach herself.[1] She met writer Tim Seeley, who asked her to draw a cover for Hack/Slash after he looked at her website.[2] The two became friends, and they now share a work space at Four Star Studios in Chicago, Illinois.[3][4]
Her artistic process starts with a pencil sketch followed by a tonal drawing on gray paper. She colors the image in Photoshop.[4] She was nominated for "Best Cover Artist" in the 2013 and 2015 Harvey Awards.[5][6]
Between 2015 and 2017, Frison drew the main covers for Clean Room, a series written by Gail Simone and published by Vertigo Comics. During the DC Rebirth era, she drew variant covers for nearly all Wonder Woman issues from #9 (October 2016) through #61 (January 2019) as well as covers for tie-in/crossover issues.[7]
The city of Burbank, California in March 2023 unveiled a statue of Wonder Woman that was based on a design by Jenny Frison. The statue was created by various artists from Burbank’s American Fine Arts Foundry and Fabrication.[8]
Frison created the poster for the American TV series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode "Melinda".[9]
